Wood vs. Metal -- Which Type of Walking Stick Do You Choose?

Brazos Walking SticksWalkers use walking sticks for various reasons, but the biggest ones are to add stability on uneven surfaces or to correct for hip pain. I have a folding aluminum Volkstaf that is easy to carry along on a hike and stow away when I don't need it.? But others like the look and feel of a wooden walking stick.

Brazos Walking Sticks handcrafts wood walking sticks in a variety of styles and woods.? I can see the appeal of a wooden walking stick for those who want to feel closer to nature and to connect with the long history of walking staffs.? Steve Walsh of Brazos tells more about why people choose wooden walking sticks.

If you walk with a metal stick or a wooden one, why do you choose one over the other?? Or do you have a whole walking stick wardrobe to choose from, depending on the day and the trail? Write a review of your walking stick or walking poles.
